Abstract:

This paper presents a novel architecture,
MobiSplit, to manage mobility in future IP based networks.
The proposed architecture separates mobility management in
two levels, local and global, that are managed in completely
independent ways. The paper describes the flexibility
advantages that this architecture brings to operators, and how
it is appropriate for the current trend to multiple and very
different access providers and operators. Heterogeneity,
support for seamless handovers and multihoming, and
scalability issues are analyzed in the paper.
